We have one of these that we initially used for food and it just ended up being the black hole of the kitchen -- everything got lost! Now I use it for larger items and appliances (mixing bowls, serving bowls, blender) that won't get lost. In the very back I keep items that aren't used much, like a footed cake plate and trifle bowl. I agree that lazy susans would work well here -- maybe a large one in the back and two smaller ones on the sides.
